State Releases Convict By Mistake And Three People Die

[DaShi]

We should free all the prisoners!

[Sava]

How the hell would killing him solve the problem.

He wouldn't be around to kill more people, dUH!

Do you think you have the right to decide who lives and dies now?

Society has the right to legitimize the rule of law

The death penalty is just sanctioned murder.

Wrong... it's sanctioned punishment.

Um... if the state can make a royal mistake like this, what is there to guarantee that it won't make a quite equally royal mistake when sentencing someone to the death penalty?

Edit - oh, Sava already pointed this out.

[trickey]

And the punishment is getting killed.

Whats murder again?
Oh yeah, it's when you kill someone.

That's why I think there should be reform... but there are clear cut cases of undeniable guilt. There should definitely be more checks and balances, as well as judicial review.

Kass is dead on there.

Nope... read up on law and the difference between murder and other cases of death.

[SlowwHand]

Murder is the killing of an innocent.

That isn't convicted murderers, nor military.
Bend it into any shape you want, that's fact.

He was a drug convict

If the liberals had their way- he would never be in jail in the first place.

Sava! This guy never killed anyone. He was convicted on drug crimes.

He's a non-violent criminal.

I never said he should have been put to sleep because of drug crimes... I said he should be put to sleep over murder.

to tell the truth- I'm not really sure . I just put that out there to spark discussion.

But there is a point to that post. The above article said he would be released eventually. You can't hold drug offenders forever. He would have killed his family eventually. You could make the argument that his anger would die down after a few years. But I doubt it. He was in prison after all. He had plenty of time for his anger to die down, it didn't. If anything, his anger increased while he was in prison.

I say we reopen the colliseum in rome! countries from around the world can bring thier criminals that have been sentenced to death and they can fight. Once they have succesfully killed at least one hundred other men they can be set free! (and of course thier car mysteriously never makes it to the airport... with them in it anyway.)
